- the present invention relates to an electricity and microcurrent generator, and more specifically, to a generator for generating a microcurrent by utilizing a gap between different metals.
- This is a device which can be used in an electrical product and is helpful for healing a disease by creating and using the microcurrent as needed.
- electricity is generated by using a generator, a motor or a battery having a recharging function.
- an apparatus for generating electricity is needed to generate electricity, and a predetermined energy is needed to drive the apparatus.
- microcurrent is used to treat a neurological disorder or a brain disorder (depression, Parkinson's disease, epilepsy or the like).
- the bioelectric current is a life energy which triggers neural transmission and accomplishes all life activities in a human body, such as ATP synthesis, protein synthesis, DNA synthesis, exercise of internal organs, secretion of hormones, flow of body fluids and the like.
- the bioelectric current functions as a medium for sharing genetic information (DNA) of each cell, and, to this end, a bioelectric current of a proper intensity is needed.
- bioelectric current biological current
- the bioelectric current of a proper intensity actively helps metabolism and blood circulation, improves immunity, and is effective in cell regeneration, pain relief, edema treatment and acceleration of hormone secretion, ATP synthesis, protein synthesis, DNA synthesis and the like.
- microcurrent generators capable of transforming electricity supplied by a battery into a microcurrent.
- an apparatus for transforming battery power into AC electricity is needed or an apparatus for generating appropriate hertz of frequency needs to be equipped in order to generate a microcurrent of an appropriate level.
- the microcurrent generator of the present invention since the microcurrent generator of the present invention generates DC electricity by itself, such a complex structure is not needed. That is, the microcurrent generator of the present invention can be utilized as a device for DC electricity treatment.
- microcurrent generator As another conventional microcurrent generator, a microcurrent generator using a piezoelectric element capable of generating a microcurrent in response to a pressure applied has been disclosed.
- the manufacturing cost increases as the piezoelectric element of high price is used, and since the microcurrent is generated only when an external force is applied, the position of applying the microcurrent will be very restricted.
- a microcurrent generator of a simple structure capable of generating a microcurrent when a magnet moves with respect to a coil has been disclosed.
- the existing microcurrent generator does not generate a microcurrent since movement of the magnet is stopped, and only when an external force is applied or a movement is generated in the surrounding area, the magnet moves, and the microcurrent is generated, and thus there is a problem in that it is difficult to generate a continuous microcurrent and the microcurrent is generated intermittently.
- the present invention has been made in view of the above problems, and it is an object of the present invention to provide a microcurrent generator capable of solving the disadvantages of the prior art and generating electricity and a microcurrent by itself by utilizing a gap between metals of different materials without using a battery or general electricity.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a microcurrent generator capable of obtaining a healing effect by utilizing a DC microcurrent generated by itself.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a microcurrent generator capable of improving efficiency of generating a microcurrent and semi-permanently generating the microcurrent.
- Another object of the present invention is to provide a microcurrent generator capable of simplifying the structure and reducing manufacturing and maintenance cost.
- the present invention provides a microcurrent generator which forms a gap between a first metal and a second metal of different materials and generates a current by using a diaphragm which can maintain the gap.
- one or more insertion holes are formed in the first metal, and the second metal is inserted in the insertion hole of the first metal to form a gap, and, in addition, a diaphragm for maintaining the gap is arranged in the gap, and terminals are connected to the first and second metals so that electricity can be supplied to an electrical product.
- terminal holes for inserting the terminals are formed in the first and second metals, respectively.
- the insertions hole of the first metal, the second metal and the terminal are formed in plurality to correspond to each other.
- third and fourth metals different from each other are sequentially arranged outside the first metal, and terminals corresponding to each other are provided in the first metal and the third and fourth metals.
- the first and second metals are formed of copper and zinc or iron and zinc.
- the gap between the first metal and the second metal is maintained to be 0.001 to 0.5 mm.
- microcurrent generator of the present invention there is an effect of generating a needed current by itself by forming a gap between a first metal and a second metal of different materials and supplying the microcurrent to an electrical product through a terminal, without using a battery or general electricity.
- the present invention has an effect of obtaining various healing effects by generating a microcurrent by itself and using the microcurrent, structurally improving efficiency of generating the microcurrent, and semi-permanently generating the microcurrent.
- the present invention may simplify the structure, reduce manufacturing and maintenance cost, consistently maintain the effect of the current or the microcurrent, and perform an intended healing function by stimulating acupuncture points, meridian points or affected areas through a terminal.
